Here are problems which will be discussed at the last lecture (Wednesday, December 13). | ||
Answers to one version of a quiz for more points on the second exam | Answers to the quiz for more points on the second exam. A very brief discussion of the grading is available. | //2006 |
Quiz for more points on the second exam | One version of a quiz given to allow students to earn more points on the second exam. | 12/5/2006 |
Answers to the second exam | Here are answers to the second exam. Please tell me any comments or corrections. Here is a discussion of the grades and grading. The numbers now show a New total, reflecting the results of the quiz for more points. | 11/28/2006 |
The second exam | Here is a version of the second exam, in a somewhat more compact format. The minor misprint discovered by Ms. Blight has been corrected. | 11/28/2006 |
This formula sheet, prepared by the course coordinator, will be handed out along with the second exam. The lecturer (who will write the second exam) has prepared some sample problems, and these problems should be discussed and solved during the Thursday workshop meetings. Note A revised version of the sample problems now exists. This revision was posted at 12:30 AM, Tuesday, 11/14/2006 so you may need to print this version. Here are some answers to these problems with additional remarks. Ms. Blight contributed greatly to these solutions. Note A slightly revised version of the solutions was posted at 2:35, Saturday, 11/18/2006 with a few minor typos corrected and some minor expository improvements made. A version of the second exam from the last time I taught the course is available, along with answers. Problem 4 on that exam also tests material from section 4.10, and therefore is not relevant to current exam preparation. | ||
The eighth workshop | The graph for problem 4 has been slightly modified. These problems were written with the upcoming exam in mind. No written solutions are requested from students. | 11/9/2006 |
The seventh workshop | Please hand in a writeup of one of the problems next Thursday. | 11/7/2006 |
Real computational quiz on derivatives | Here is the computational test on derivatives as it was actually
given. Here are some acceptable
answers.
Here is a discussion of the grades and grading. | 10/30/2006 |
The sixth workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the second problem next Thursday. | 10/23/2006 |
Some answers to the sample computational quiz on derivatives | Here are some possible answers to the sample computational quiz. I strongly suggest that students try to answer the quiz questions before looking at these answers. | 10/23/2006 |
Sample computational quiz on derivatives | Students will be given a computational quiz on limits in recitation on Thursday, October 26. Here is a sample of the kind of questions which will be asked. | 10/23/2006 |
Answers to the first exam | Here are answers to version A the first exam. Please tell me any comments or corrections. Here is a discussion of the grades and grading. | 10/17/2006 |
The first exam | Here is a version of the first exam, in a somewhat more compact format. | 10/17/2006 |
The lecturer (who will write the first exam) has prepared some sample problems, and these problems should be discussed and solved during the Thursday workshop meetings. Ms. Blight has kindly prepared some answers to these problems. A version of the first exam from the last time I taught the course is available, along with answers. That exam included material from Lecture 10, and therefore most of question 5 could not be asked on the exam to be given here. Here are some web-based review pages. | ||
The fifth workshop | No problem solutions are requested. Students should be able to do all of the problems. Being able to solve these problems is necessary knowledge about derivatives at this stage of the course. | 10/5/2006 |
The fourth workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the first problem next Thursday. | 10/2/2006 |
Real computational quiz on limits | Here is the computational test on limits as it was actually
given. Here are some acceptable
answers.
Here is a discussion of the grades and grading. | 9/29/2006 |
Some answers to the sample computational quiz on limits | Here are some possible answers to the sample computational quiz. I
strongly suggest that students try to answer the quiz questions
before looking at these answers. Today (9/28/2006) Mr. Pellizzi of Section 6 showed me an error in the justification for the answer to question 5. The answer as given was correct, but some algebraic steps in the justification were incorrect. I've fixed the error and thank him for showing me this. | 9/25/2006 |
Sample computational quiz on limits | Students will be given a computational quiz on limits in recitation on Thursday, September 28. Here is a sample of the kind of questions which will be asked. | 9/25/2006 |
The third workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the second problem next Thursday. | 9/25/2006 |
The second workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the second problem next Thursday. And here is a discussion of why I think these problems are relevant to successful learning of calculus. | 9/18/2003 |
The first workshop | Please hand in a writeup of the third problem next Thursday. And here is a discussion of why I think these problems are relevant to successful learning of calculus. | 9/4/2003 |
Information sheet | Information sheet handed out in the first recitation meeting. | 9/3/2006 |
I've taught Math 151 a number of times. The most
recent occasion was the fall 2003 semester. Here is a link to the
course material for that instantiation. The material, which is quite
extensive, includes exams with solutions, review material, and a course
diary.
